Discussion What are the elements which influence the shape of the organization structure? Copyright 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. Chapter 6-٢

3 What Elements Influence Organizational Structure? Purpose Mission Strategy Size Technology External Environment Organizational structure is usually quite fluid! Designing the Organizational Structure? Since all of these elements except the purpose and mission are subject to frequent change, organizational structure in most successful organizations is quite fluid. Discussion: how each element could impact organizational structure. Copyright 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. Chapter 6-٣

4 Organization chart Organization chart: A diagram depicting a company s structure and showing employees where they fit into its operations. Chain of command: The reporting relationships within a company that are illustrated on the organization chart. Discussion: why it s important for new employees to see an organization chart. The Building Blocks of Organizational Structure Specialization: The process of identifying the specific jobs that need to be done and designating the people who will perform them. The need to specialize jobs becomes especially important as organizations grow. Importance of specialization Copyright 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. Chapter 6-٤

5 The Building Blocks of Organizational Structure Departmentalization: Departmentalization The process of grouping jobs into logical units. In general, it occurs along the following lines (or any combination of them): Customer: according to types of customers likely to buy a given product. Example: When a company divides callers into new and current customers in order to sell them the appropriate products. E.g. women and men departments; wholesale and retail department. Product: Departmentalization according to specific products being created. Example: When a computer store has a department for printers, for hardware, for software, etc. often used in manufacturers. Process: Departmentalization according to production processes used to create a good or service. Example: When a garment factory has a department for cutting, for sewing, etc. Geographic: Departmentalization according to areas served by a business. Example: When a food company has a department to serve each region of the U.S. Functional: Departmentalization according to the function or activities of similar groups. Example: When a company has a different department for marketing, accounting, etc..١.٢.٣.٤.٥ What is the Decision-Making Hierarchy It defines who makes which decisions in the organization. Copyright 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. Chapter 6-٥

6 The Decision-Making Hierarchy Assigning Tasks Performing Tasks Distributing Authority The Decision-Making Hierarchy Assigning tasks is a matter of responsibility who has the duty to complete a task--and authority who has the power to make the decisions necessary to complete a task. In most successful organizations, responsibility and authority for each task are closely linked and balanced. Performing tasks involves delegation the assignment of a task to a subordinate and accountability the subordinate s liability to actually perform the task. Effective delegation is crucial to effective organizations. Distributing authority relates to the pattern of who holds authority in the organization. Is authority concentrated in the hands of senior managers, or is it pushed down to the lower levels of the organization? Copyright 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. Chapter 6-٦

7 Discussion Have you ever been in situations where instructions were not clearly communicated? What was the effect on worker productivity? Was the task performed adequately? Why or why not? How did the worker feel in this situation? Delegating authority Delegating authority tends to be especially difficult for small business owners for the following reasons: Many fear that employees can t do anything as.١ well as they can. Many fear that something will go wrong if.٢ someone else takes over a job. Many lack time for long range planning that is.٣ required for delegation. Many have a sense that they are in the dark about.٤ industry trends and competition because of the time they devote to day-to-day operations. (they do not have knowledge and experience). Copyright 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. Chapter 6-٧

8 Discussion How to solve the problem of lack of delegation? Acknowledge subordinates limitations Train subordinates to delegate Recognize that successful subordinates reflect well on the manager Seek training in how to delegate effectively.١.٢.٣.٤ Discussion : What are the benefits of delegating effectively? The drawbacks of not delegating effectively? Copyright 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. Chapter 6-٨

9 Centralized and Decentralized Organizations Centralized Top managers hold most decision-making authority Decentralized Lower level managers hold significant decision-making authority Organizational Structure and Span of Control Relatively narrow span of control Relatively wide span of control Copyright 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. Chapter 6-٩

10 Organizational Structure and Span of Control The concepts of tall and flat organizations are closely related to the degree of centralization: Flat organizations: Characteristic of decentralized companies with relatively few layers of management and relatively wide spans of control. Tall organizations: Characteristic of centralized companies with multiple layers of management and relatively narrow spans of control. Span of control: The number of people who report to each manager. In tall organizations, span of control tends to be narrow, while in flat organizations, span of control tends to be wide. Discussion Identify the elements that influence span of control. complexity and similarity of subordinates tasks, the subordinates abilities, the supervisor s managerial skills, etc.) Copyright 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. Chapter 6-١٠

11 Forms of Authority Line Authority Line Departments Staff Authority Staff Members Committee and Team Authority Forms of Authority Several different forms of authority develop in most organizations, regardless of the organizational structure. Line authority: When authority flows up and down the chain of command. Classic example: the military. Line departments: Departments with a direct link to the production and sales of a specific product. Examples include: manufacturing, assembly, sales, and distribution. Each line department is essential to an organization s success. Line employees are the producers in the company. Staff authority: When authority is based on expertise that usually involves advising line managers. Examples include: legal, accounting, human resources. They help line departments in making decisions. E.g. marketing department seeks attorney advice for signing new contract. Staff members: Assist line departments in making decisions, but do not have the authority to make final decisions. Solid lines and dotted lines Team and committee authority: Authority granted to teams or committees that play central roles in the firm s daily operations. This form of authority has recently emerged across a wide spectrum of companies. Copyright 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. Chapter 6-١١

12 Basic Forms of Organizational Structure Functional Organization Divisional Organization Matrix Organization International Organization Basic Forms of Organizational Structure Functional organization: Structured around basic business functions such as marketing, operations, and finance. Examples can be found in most small to medium businesses. Divisional organization: Corporate divisions operate as autonomous businesses under the larger corporate umbrella. This structure relies on product departmentalization. Examples include General Electric, and The Walt Disney Company. The create product based divisions. Each may be managed as a separate enterprise. Matrix organization: Teams are formed, and team members report to two or more managers. In some firms the matrix structure is temporary, while in other firms it is permanent. Examples include: Martha Stewart Living, Omnimedia, and many large consulting firms. It was created by NASA. It relies on committee and team authority. International organization: Approach developed in response to the need to manufacture, purchase, and sell in global markets. Typically an international structure evolves as international operations escalate. Copyright 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. Chapter 6-١٢

What purpose does it serve? An organization chart represents the firm s structure and shows where employees fit into the hierarchy. Organization charts depict the extent of line and staff authority, departmentalization, and span of control at various levels. Explain the significance of size as it relates to the organizational structure. Describe the changes that are likely to occur as an organization grows. Larger firms develop more complex organizational structures. As a firm s size increases, job specialization (and at least some decentralization) becomes increasingly important, followed by departmentalization, and a more definitive decision-making hierarchy. Why is a company s informal organization important? The everyday social connections among employees can transcend formal job related relationships, creating a very powerful dynamic that can either support or disrupt a firm s effectiveness. Copyright 2003 Prentice Hall, Inc. Chapter 6-١٣

14 Chapter Review What is the difference between responsibility and authority? Responsibility is the duty to perform an assigned task, and authority is the power to make the decisions necessary to compete that task. Responsibility and authority should be closely linked for any given assignment. Why do some managers have difficulties in delegating authority? Why does this problem tend to plague smaller businesses? Some of the reasons managers have difficulty delegating authority include: Fear that employees can t do anything as well as they can.١ Fear that something will go wrong if someone else does it.٢ Fear that that employees will show up the manager.٣ Too bogged down in day-to-day activities to delegate.٤ Don t know how to delegate.٥ Want to keep control.٦ Delegating is especially difficult for small business owners because they typically began by doing everything themselves and having complete control.
